In that case I think you've got all the lock & mutex debugging turned
on :)
CONFIG_DEBUG_MUTEXES & CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC will add a lot to the
mutex directly.

CONFIG_GENERIC_LOCKBREAK, CONFIG_DEBUG_SPINLOCK &
CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC will each grow the spinlock contained in the
mutex.

However, I'm seeing all structures packed to size of 8n -- so I'd never
get a sizeof 164. Maybe that's just a platform/compiler difference ?
I'm running on AMD 64 & gcc 4.1.2
